Curriculum

The British International School personalise the learning experience for each child. This creates a learning environment which is vibrant, creative and fun. It allows each student to become fully engaged in their studies and allows them to attain outstanding academic results.

Our collaborations with the world's best, including MIT, Juilliard and UNICEF allows us to deliver world class innovative programmes in STEAM, the performing arts and global citizenship. Our USD 2million investment in two STEAM innovation centres in both Primary and Secondary allows innovation to run through the very heart of our school. BISS prepares students not only to enter the world top univerisities but to go there with the knowledge, skills and experience of a new generation of innovators.

At BISS, sports plays an important role in the development of young people. Students from all aged actively participate in sports. There is a wide variety of sports on offer and their dedicated team of sports educators ensure that every student enjoys and excels in their chosen sport. At BISS, our Elite Performance coach Mr. Marlon Devonish is an Olympic Gold Medalist and he works with all students to coach, improve and inspire young sportsmen and sportswomen to be the best that they can be.
